Have taken my hook out of the water - I found a sweet fish to swim with. But I enjoy the forums too much to leave!! Especially the cooking one.
You are looking at a very active guy who loves life !! I have done a lot and plan on doing a lot more - but it is always better with a companion to love.
Love to dance - took lessons in waltz, foxtrot, jive, tango, chacha. Also love cooking (and eating it) - Italian, Greek, Chinese, French, etc., biking, skiing cross-country and downhill, swimming, skating (gotta get some inline skates for summer), etc.
Have travelled a great deal - all across Canada, Europe, some of the States - people everywhere are great !! So plan on doing more travelling as time and money permits.
Making wine and beer is fun, singing in choirs, better not tell too much !!
Love to camp, lay out on the beach as the sun is going down and watch the stars, walk the beach in the moonlight kicking at the surf, laughing ...
I just found this on a lady's profile and can't help be "borrow" it:
Love me without fear
Trust me without questioning
Need me without demanding
Want me without restrictions
Accept me without change
Desire me without inhibitions
For a love so free
Will never fly away
by Richard Sutphen
it says it all...
with thanks to "mimosa" from Quebec
And another:
"The most precious possession that ever comes
To a man in this world
Is a woman's heart."
- by Josiah G. Holland
On a different note:
A pessimist sees the difficulty in every opportunity; an optimist sees the opportunity in every difficulty.
- by Sir Winston Churchill
p.s. I am an optimist !!

On our first date we could go for a drink or a bite to eat at Off Broadway or Merchantman so we could chat and get to know each other - then a walk on the boardwalk in the moonlight and talk about the future.
